Quote:•No woman has the right to have an abortion using other people's money.
•A woman only has the right to have such services on fair and equal grounds. Be it monetary earnings or whatever health services she has available.
Fortunately, part of living in a representative democracy is that you - personally - do not get to choose how your tax monies are spent.
Why don't women have the right to publically-funded abortion? The notion that a woman can't avail herself of this procedure unless she has the cash on hand is simply nutty (for the record, if she has private insurance that covers the procedure, she is paying for it with 'other people's money', at least partly).
I doubt very much that you would prohibit someone from driving on a road unless they paid for it themselves, or hooking into the power grid unless they built it themselves - why the exception for this particular medical procedure?
